Kansas City Object Lessons, Spring 2016

Kansas City Object Lessons is a field trip course, facilitated by Erin Zona, in which students will visit, view, and discuss often unshared archives and collections within our city.

Meeting each week in a different location, students have the very special opportunity to view objects, art objects, and works on paper that exist in local personal and private collections as well as "hidden" within well known Kansas City institutions. To view these types of objects, removed from the traditional museum display, allows the viewer a unique experience including insight into the wide functions of art and the ways in which art and collecting are reflective of Kansas City history.

Participants in this class helped produce and curate the first bi-annual Zz School Sympozium held on April 8, 2016.

Sincere thanks to all of our tour guides! We are deeply inspired by all of you and your work.
